Law Society of Alberta President's Award

The Law Society of Alberta President's Award is presented to students with satisfactory academic standing who are convocating with a degree of Juris Doctor in the Faculty of Law at the University of Alberta. The award recognizes outstanding students based on three key criteria: demonstrated understanding of the student's own professional and ethical responsibilities, demonstrated leadership that exemplifies the high standards of conduct the Law Society of Alberta expects from its members, and academic standing. This endowed award was established by Anne Kirker QC, LLB (University of Calgary) 1991 and BSc in Nursing (University of Alberta) 1987, to support excellence in legal education and professional development.
